Los Angeles Lakers (hereafter Lakers) one-two punch LeBron James (38) and Anthony Davis (29) praised Jared Vanderbilt (23).

The Lakers defeated the Dallas Mavericks (hereinafter referred to as Dallas) by 111-108, 3 points in the NBA 2022-23 regular season away game held at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, USA on the morning of the 27th (hereinafter Korean time). It was a come-from-behind victory overturning a 27-point gap.

It was Vanderbilt who stood out the most in this game. He mainly blocked his opponent’s ace, Luka Doncic.

Against Vanderbilt, Doncic was quite taken aback by his size and energy, and recorded a field goal success rate of 28.5% (2/7). In addition, Vanderbilt persistently interfered with opposing ace Brandon Ingram against the New Orleans Pelicans on the 16th.

After the game, Davis said at a press conference that Vanderbilt had a lot of influence on the team, not only on the defense, but also on the offense.

“He’s a very valuable player,” Davis said, starting with the defensive impact Vanderbilt has had on the team.

“Vanderbilt knows how to shoot from the corner, make the cut and get the offensive rebound,” he said. “I can’t put into words the value he brings to our team and what he does. Having a player like that will definitely help us a lot.” 바카라사이트

LeBron went on to explain that Vanderbilt is a great resource on the offensive court.

“Vanderbilt has a knack for surprising people,” LeBron said. “Opponents don’t think Vanderbilt is a threat from the 3-point line. However, he uses these to his advantage. He kicked 8 offensive rebounds because opponents don’t consider him when a teammate steps up to the shot.”

“He knows where to put his energy and effort. He praised Vanderbilt as a special player, saying, “It proves that he has a high basketball IQ in itself.”

Meanwhile, Vanderbilt recorded 17 rebounds (8 ORB) and 4 steals in the game that day, and also achieved a 75% (6/8) field shooting success rate and 100% (1/1) 3-point shot success rate in offense. He is a versatile wing defender and a player with explosive energy as his record shows.

A highly versatile wing defender, Vanderbilt energizes the Lakers with explosive energy. And he quickly made the Lakers fans who watched him fall in love.

Over the past few days, I have been applying for the Indochina Peninsula International Baseball Championship, which was held for the first time in Southeast Asia. While talking with coach Lee Man-soo, I came to the idea that it would be nice to convey the emotions I felt while working with the Laos national team and the process of coming to Laos through writing.
My job is to help players prevent injuries, rehabilitate and improve physical strength after injuries. It is called by the professional names of Athletic Trainer and Strength & Conditioning Coach. The reason why I chose this job was that I was seriously injured when I was young in my 20s, but I experienced several rehabilitation failures due to the poor level of sports rehabilitation at the time and taught athletes who suffered from injuries like me the correct rehabilitation and prevention of injuries. It was meant to give.

As time passed, I became the chief trainer of a professional baseball team, and one day I suddenly felt a strange feeling about my job. In professional sports, where every day is a world of competition, I began to question whether the work I was doing every day was really a process for a better world that I had dreamed of.

It was around that time. I saw the look of the legendary coach Lee Man-soo, who spread baseball in Laos far away. At first I was very puzzled. Why does the coach, who has received all the glory as a baseball player, including the major leagues, throw away his peaceful old age and suffer so much in a hot country? I was full of wonder. It took me four years after that to know the director’s heart.

As mentioned earlier, I became the head trainer of a professional baseball team that I had longed for, but I couldn’t stand the feeling of emptiness. So I made a little strange choice in the eyes of others. I left behind the head coach’s dissuade and left for the unemployment rugby team. At that time, I had one thought. Baseball is good, but if I can’t find the true value of sports and the first mindset as a trainer in the world of daily matches, I thought the way I should go is to go back to the beginning.

I made a choice that my family, friends, and colleagues couldn’t understand in order to find something I had forgotten while sharing the joys and sorrows with the players in an unpopular sport. After 4 years like that, I was so exhausted that I thought about giving up my job as a trainer. More than anything, I’ve come to a stage where my job doesn’t feel very worthwhile. I got stuck in the frame of thought, ‘Oh my God, will my job and my skills help me?’

In the meantime, I heard the news about the Laos baseball team again, and while watching the director who is still leading Laos baseball with an unchanging look, ‘what is the driving force of that person’s life. I am so tired of being on a sports team for 12 years. How can I live a life for others?’

That’s how I contacted the coach and helped with the Gangneung field training. After some time, I found out that I was wrong. It was a meeting that reminded me of my value as a trainer, not to help Laos baseball players.

Pure passion towards baseball and baseball people who help them without conditions and without conditions, and those who love Laos baseball without conditions, including representative Jane Nae. I saw the roles and dreams that sports and baseball should play for people that I had forgotten or that the world had forgotten about.

I think so. We all have memories of baseball. Head coach Lee Man-soo’s signature look of joy after hitting a home run, Jang Jong-hoon’s off-field home run in Japan, and semi-winner at the WBC Baseball is the best sport in Korea, giving people and me joy and dreams at a time like this. Billions of billions of ransoms are mentioned in the media every day, but I think the essence of baseball and sports is to give people dreams and hopes.

When I see amateur players, I lose my smile in the pressure of the draft and hard training every day. I know it’s a reality and I can’t help it. 슬롯사이트 I don’t mean to criticize. Pro is a competition. However, I am so grateful and fortunate to be able to see on the faces of Laos baseball players the image of rolling up newspapers as a child, making them into gloves, gathering trees from the mountains and trimming them into bats, calling you Lee Man-soo and I Song Jin-woo. .

Life is hard and difficult, but I will continue to help the bishop with my skills and abilities. When I think about it, it seems that I am not helping Lao players, but reminding them of the value that Lao players are a dream of sports.

If you love baseball and have happy memories due to baseball, you will think of us who dreamed of playing baseball in the alley. And I think we can find our childhood dreams and hopes in the looks of Laos players.

I hope many people will support the Laos players and I will finish writing. thank you

This is the first time that a promoted team has won 2 wins in the first round.
The 2023 season K-League has begun. Starting with ‘defending champion’ Ulsan Hyundai, 5 teams secured 3 points. In particular, both Gwangju FC and Daejeon Hana Citizen, who were promoted from the second division last season, won. Gwangju won a thrilling 1-0 victory at Suwon Samsung, and Daejeon also defeated Gangwon FC 2-0 at home and sounded the score.

Gwangju and Daejeon showed stronger power than expected. In particular, Gwangju overpowered Suwon with coach Lee Jung-hyo’s excellent tactics and mercenary skills. Foreign players such as Asani, Timo, and Sandro did their part, and above all, goalkeeper Kim Kyung-min saved the team with a super save. Daejeon consistently pushed Gangwon and scored two goals in the first half to secure victory. The power of the attacking duo of Leandro and Thiago shined.

It is the first time that both promoted teams have won since the 2013 season when the promotion and relegation system was introduced. First of all, the two teams have been promoted a total of 6 times. Daejeon and Gwangju, which succeeded in promotion in the 2014 season, failed to win the first game of the 2015 season. Daejeon lost (0-1) to Busan I-Park at the time, and Gwangju drew (2-2) with Incheon United. 메이저놀이터

In the 2015 season, Sangju Sangmu (now Gimcheon Sangmu) and Suwon FC were promoted to the first division. However, after coming up to the first part of the 2016 season, he recorded 1 win and 1 draw in his first game. Sangju won 2-0 against Ulsan Hyundai, but Suwon FC drew 0-0 with Jeonnam Dragons. In the 2017 season, Gangwon, a promoted team, won Sangju 2-1, but Daegu FC lost 0-1 to Gwangju. In the 2020 season, Gwangju knelt down to Seongnam FC (0-2 loss) and Busan to Pohang Steelers (0-2 loss). In the 2021 season, Jeju United drew Seongnam (0-0 draw) and Suwon FC drew Daegu (1-1 draw).

As such, it is not so easy for a promoted team to rise to the first division and immediately win. The previous promoted team’s first round record is 5 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses. Above all, it has become ‘1+2’ since last season due to changes in the relegation system. There is a lot of pressure from the teams in the middle and lower ranks. The fight for survival will inevitably intensify. This season, the main evaluation is that there is no particularly clear weak team. The two promoted teams showed competitiveness in the first part, and announced that the unprecedented ‘survival’ competition had begun.

Lionel Messi is also writing history at Paris Saint-Germain (PSG).

PSG won a 3-0 victory over Olympique Marseille in the 25th round of Ligue 1 in the 2022/2023 season held at the Orange Velodrome in Marseille, France on the 27th at 4:45 am (Korean time).

The victory in the match against second place Marseille widened the gap to 8 points, taking one step closer to winning the league.

This day was no different from Messi’s one-man show. Starting with helping Kylian Mbappe’s opening goal in the 25th minute of the first half, he succeeded in scoring with the help of Mbappe 4 minutes later. He helped Mbappe’s key goal in the 10th minute of the second half, and was involved in all three goals with a total of one goal and two assists. 바카라사이트

Messi set a new record with a goal that day. Reached the 700th goal in the professional team’s career. He scored 672 goals during his time at FC Barcelona and wore a PSG uniform last season.

There was also a time when I slowed down due to the adaptation due to my first entry into another professional league. However, Messi succeeded in reviving by scoring 16 goals this season alone and was able to reach the record.

The Dutch World Baseball Classic (WBC) national team, which lost two consecutive games to Hanhwa, the lowest in the KBO League, dealt a blow to championship candidate LG. The performance of the Netherlands, which made Korea cry twice in the WBC, is not easily measured.

The Netherlands, led by coach Hensley Mullen, who was the first foreign hitter for the SK Wyverns (now SSG Landers) in 2000, played a practice game against LG held at Salt River Field at Talking Stick in Scottsdale, Arizona, USA on the 26th (hereinafter Korean time), 7- won by 5

It was a game that was dragged to 0-4 until the 7th inning, but the charter was turned over in an instant with 7 runs and big innings in the 8th inning. Ademar Rifaela hit a come-from-behind home run against LG’s last pitcher, Bae Jae-joon, on first base, and Zander Biel hit a wedge-shaped two-run home run, cementing the win for the Netherlands.

LG had the league’s highest number of 6 players selected for the WBC national team, and Austin Tin and Lee Jae-won were not at their best as they missed the match today due to mild symptoms of phlegm on their sides. Except for Bae Jae-jun, who gave up 6 runs, the remaining 6 pitchers pitched well. The overall content of the game was complied with, but in the 8th inning, the Dutch rushed.

The Netherlands previously lost 2 consecutive times to Hanwha, who ranked 10th in the KBO League for 3 consecutive years. In the first game on the 20th, Moon Dong-ju, who threw a 156km fastball, and Hanwha pitchers blocked the ball with 4 sporadic hits and lost 1-4. defeated by 15.

Although they lost twice to the bottom team, the Netherlands showed an unpredictable performance as they beat the favorite team to win. It’s just a practice match, so winning or losing isn’t important, but it doesn’t seem easy to gauge the strength of the Netherlands.

The Netherlands is a European powerhouse, ranked 7th in the world. Players from Dutch Curacao, located in the Caribbean, not the mainland, advanced to the semifinals in both the recent two WBCs in 2013 and 2017. It is also the team that suffered ‘disaster’ by beating Korea 5-0 in the group stage both times.

At the most recent 2017 WBC, Holland played an active role on the Asian stage with major leaguers such as pitchers Rick Vandenhulk and Kenley Jansen, infielders Xander Bogaats, Didi Gregorius, Jonathan Scoop, Andrelton Simmons, and outfielders Jurickson Profar and Vladimir Valentin. One player was the main focus.

But now, six years later, only Jansen, Bogarts, and Scoop remain in the major leagues. The rest are veterans with high name value, but past their prime in their late 30s. Valentin, who recorded the most 60 home runs in an Asian season in Japan in 2013, will retire after this WBC. 39-year-old Val Tentin and his same age, KIA outfielder Roger Bernardina, also admitted that retirement was imminent, saying, “I won’t play for two or three more years at the most.” 카지노사이트

Propa, an FA who played an active role in the major leagues until last year and can still sign a contract worth 5 million dollars a year if he so chooses, joined the national team as an additional player. Vanden Hulk, who was an ace six years ago, retired a year ago, and Jansen will participate from the second round, so the role of former major leaguer Pedro Strop, who will be responsible for the back door in the first round group stage, is important.

The Netherlands are in Group A with Chinese Taipei, Cuba, Italy and Panama. If the 1st and 2nd places advance to the quarterfinals, the 1st and 2nd places in Group B will be able to face off against South Korea, who is likely to advance to the quarterfinals. In the same group, not only Taiwan, but also the Korean national team sent a power analysis team to the Dutch game to closely check. The Netherlands continues its practice game on the 27th against Kiwoom, another KBO league team.

Who was the hitter with the highest batting average among the 52 hitters who filled the required at-bat last year? It was Lee Jung-hoo (25, Kiwoom) who won the regular season MVP. Last year, Lee Jung-hoo recorded a batting average of .349, 23 home runs, and 113 RBIs, and among them, he showed great concentration by exploding a batting average of .387 (53 hits in 137 bats), 8 home runs, and 86 RBIs in scoring position.

Lotte also has a hitter who turns into a monster whenever a scoring situation arises. Jack Rex, who wore a Lotte uniform as a substitute foreign hitter for DJ Peters last season, showed a quick adaptation to the KBO league with a batting average of .330, 8 homers, and 34 RBIs. He showed an impressive blow that exploded the RBI.

Although the sample is small compared to Lee Jung-hoo’s at-bats, his clutch ability in scoring position was enough to completely fascinate Lotte. Rex’s .449 batting average in scoring position ranks first in the league for hitters who have played 50 or more at-bats in scoring position.

Lotte, of course, classified Rex as a contract renewal target, and their accompaniment was confirmed as they signed for a total of $1.3 million.

This year, Lotte has no choice but to increase the proportion of Rex in other lines. It is because ‘Legend’ Dae-ho Lee retired after last season, leaving a big hole in the center of the batting line. Lee Dae-ho left Sajik Stadium with a batting average of .331, 23 homers and 101 RBIs in his retirement season. Right now, Lotte has the task of filling Lee Dae-ho’s vacancy, but it is not easy to fill it at once. If Rex, the ‘scoring monster’, takes the lead in a situation where the unity of many players is required, Lotte’s batting line can have more destructive power than expected. This is the best way for Lotte to forget Lee Dae-ho.

Finally, on the 22nd, Rex fired a home run in an exchange match with the 2nd Chiba Lotte Group, announcing a refreshing start to the actual battle. The result was 1 hit, 1 RBI and 1 run in 3 at-bats. Rex expressed satisfaction, saying, “It was my first real game, so I wanted to show a good performance in the at-bat. The plan to hit as many balls as possible was executed well.” 바카라사이트

At the time, Lotte coach Larry Sutton also commented after the game, “The hitters continued to create scoring chances, which is our main focus, and scored without missing opportunities,” which shows that Lotte is focusing on creating scoring opportunities and productivity. let it be Now that Lee Dae-ho’s ‘oriental medicine’ has disappeared, the team’s batting line should move even a little more organically. Fortunately, Rex, who is strong in scoring, is in Lotte’s lineup. If only ‘table setting’ is done smoothly, Lotte’s scoring ability can be sufficiently competitive.

Despite the defeat, Daegu FC showed their skill, efficient counterattack and height, without regret.
Daegu, led by coach Choi Won-kwon, lost 2-3 in an away game against Pohang Steelers in the first round of the Hana One Q 2023 K League 1 held at Pohang Steel Yard on the 26th. Ko Jae-hyun’s opening goal in the 29th minute of the first half and Sejingya’s penalty kick in the 19th minute of the second half took the lead in succession, but Pohang Lee Ho-jae scored consecutive goals and knelt down.

It was the official directorial debut of Choi Won-kwon that day. Coach Choi suddenly took over as acting manager in September of last year and led the relegated team to a miraculous survival. This season, he is promoted to full manager and plays his first season. However, Daegu did not have a clear power reinforcement ahead of this season. Domestic resources such as Jeong Tae-woo (Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors), Park Byung-hyun (Daejeon Hana Citizen), and Kim Woo-seok (Gangwon FC) left the team. I brought Kim Kang-san, but he was not included in the list for this day due to an injury.

Coach Choi declared early on, “I will play soccer that Daegu is good at.” After retiring after the 2016 season, coach Choi continues his coaching career in Daegu. He knows Daegu better than anyone else. On this day, he also built a three-back to block Pohang’s attack and then launched an efficient counterattack.

In the first half, Daegu’s ball possession was only 26%. Even in the second half, the share was always 20%. The overall share of the game was 25%. Even so, the attacks made from occasional opportunities were quite menacing. 안전놀이터 And he made sure to use the height that Daegu boasts. In the 29th minute of the first half, Daegu, which was embarrassed by Pohang’s offensive, entered the penalty box with a single back pass. He failed to score, but in the ensuing corner kick situation, Ko Jae-hyun, who received Hong Jeong-woon’s header pass, pushed it into the net and shook the net. It was the moment when Hong Jeong-woon’s height and Ko Jae-hyeon’s location selection shined.

It was the same in the second half. Daegu gave Pohang Jeong Jae-hee an equalizer in the 45th minute, but he quickly overcame it. In the 9th minute of the second half, coach Choi put forward striker Edgar to strengthen the offense. 10 minutes later, Pohang goalkeeper Hwang In-jae parried Edgar’s header after receiving a corner kick from Sejingya. Afterwards, Ko Jae-hyun tried to shoot the rebounded ball again, but Pohang striker Kim In-seong stopped it and committed a foul. The referee declared a penalty kick, and Sejingya, who started as the kicker, succeeded in turning the ball around again with a calm finish. Edgar’s height power, which is not yet in perfect physical condition, led to the goal.
Daegu showed the highest efficiency with 5 shots and 4 effective shots even when the possession rate stayed in the 20% range. Although the defensive concentration was shaken at the end of the second half and consecutive goals were lost, it was different from what was feared before the season. It was confirmed that the soccer coach Choi knows well and that Daegu is good at is still powerful.

KB players showed good performance in the 3rd quarter. In particular, Yoonmi Lee, Jisu Yang, and Seoyi Um, who were chosen as the team’s future, were the main characters.

Cheongju KB Stars met Asan Woori Bank in the Shinhan Bank SOL 2022-2023 Women’s Professional Basketball regular league held at Cheongju Gymnasium on the 25th and lost 56-70.

KB was the best team in the league last season. Park Ji-soo (196cm, C), a sure ace, recruited Kang I-seul (180cm, F), and showed an overwhelming appearance from the regular league to the championship match.

But this season was a bit different. It is because of the residual injuries of the players and Park Ji-soo not playing many games due to injury. In the 9 games Park Ji-soo played, he recorded 6 wins and 3 losses, but recorded 3 wins and 15 losses in the remaining games. As a result, they failed to qualify for the playoffs before the season was over.

Not only Park Ji-soo but Yeom Yoon-ah (177cm, G) were also ruled out for the season due to injuries. It was KB that was preparing for the next season as it had already failed to advance to the playoffs. Then, KB coach Kim Wan-soo began to pay attention to the young players in the team. Heo Ye-eun (165cm, G), as well as Yang Ji-su (174cm, F), Lee Yoon-mi (172cm, G), and Um Seo-i (175cm, F), who are performing well this season, will receive more opportunities.

KB played an equal game with Woori Bank in the first quarter. Even though the team scored only 10 points, it was because they gave only 14 points to the opponent.

However, in the second quarter, Woori Bank’s offense began to revive. Woori Bank allowed 4 3-pointers. It was pushed from the beginning of the quarter and went to the end of the second quarter. The defense was disappointing, but the offense was even more disappointing. Only 4 points in the first 5 minutes of the quarter. Then the score gap widened rapidly. Even in the second half of the second quarter, KB only scored 3 points. They started the second quarter at 10-14, but finished the second quarter at 17-36.

Even so, KB players did not give up. In particular, Eom Seo-i, Lee Yun-mi, and Yang Ji-soo did not spare their bodies.

Um Seo-i recorded an offensive rebound at 2:42 and scored a free throw. After that, he took a rebound that did not spare his body, which led to Kang Iseul’s 3-point shot. Then the atmosphere of KB came alive.

Yang Ji-soo added a mid-range score through a handoff play with Um Seo-i. Afterwards, Yang Ji-soo even scored a free throw. In particular, he added vitality to the team by not being pushed back in physical fights with opponents, including the rebound fight.

After that, Yoonmi Lee took on the role of a solver for the team. During the 3-point shot process, he induced the opponent’s foul and succeeded in 2 out of 3 free throws obtained. Afterwards, he received Heo Ye-eun’s ball and added a quick three-point shot. It didn’t stop there and added a 3-point shot 1 minute and 6 seconds before the end of the quarter. It was Lee Yoon-mi who scored 10 points in the third quarter alone. 바카라사이트

With the dedication of Eom Seo-i and Yang Ji-soo and Lee Yoon-mi’s scoring ability, KB quickly narrowed the score gap. However, the end of the quarter was disappointing. They gave up 6 points in a row and finished the third quarter with a score of 40-57. Nevertheless, in the third quarter, they took a narrow lead, 25-21.

KB players did their best until the end. In particular, Yang Ji-su scored 4 points and tried to chase. However, the score gap that had already been opened was too great, and the match was lost in the end.

Kim Ha-seong (28, San Diego) was excluded from the selection for the demonstration game and took a breather.
Kim Ha-seong missed an exhibition game against the Chicago White Sox in the major league held at Camelback Ranch in Glendale, Arizona on the 6th (Korean time). Kim Ha-seong, who started as second baseman and fifth hitter before the opening game against Seattle on the 25th, and made his first collaboration with shortstop Xander Bogatz, who joined ahead of this season, in a keystone combination, Kim Ha-seong also received a passing grade as a second baseman. The American local media also reported on Kim Ha-sung’s performance as a second baseman. 슬롯사이트

On this day, Kim Ha-seong played a simulation game at Bogatz and the club training facility and took a break. San Diego put forward shortstop prospect Jackson Merrill and last year’s second baseman Jake Cronenworth as their keystone combination for the match. Merrill went 0-for-2, and Cronenworth went 1-for-3 with 1 RBI.

Meanwhile, San Diego beat the Chicago White Sox 6-2, despite excluding most of its key players.

“I think players are happy when they are on the pitch.”
Hwang Eui-jo, who returned to the K-League after six years, shared his impressions of playing on the ground as a starter with the team’s victory.

Hwang Eui-jo started the opening game against Incheon United in the Hana One Q 2023 K League 1 held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium on the 25th and spent about 84 minutes on the ground.

After joining Girondins de Bordeaux (France) in the summer of 2019 and advancing to the European stage, he established himself as a leading striker. Thanks to his performance, he moved to Olympiacos (Greece) on loan after nesting in Nottingham Forest of the English Premier League (EPL) last year, but his position was unstable. In the end, he chose to go to Seoul on a short-term lease, and contributed to the team’s victory from the opening game.

Hwang Eui-jo, who we met after the game, said, “The first game always tends to be difficult, but it was good to be able to show the things the players have prepared with great effort on the field. He took the first game, but said the future is important. Don’t relax and prepare well for the upcoming game.”

He formed a two-top team with Park Dong-jin. Hwang Ui-jo said, “During the preseason, Dong-jin was in good shape. He also continued to score goals. It seems that the director saw that part,” he said. “The choice is made by the director. It is important for players to prepare hard. No matter which player comes in, there are many cases where he does his part. He has to tune in,” he said.

There was a passionate support from the fans. The stadium was packed with 22,204 spectators that day. Hwang Ui-jo said, “I did it in Sangam when I played for the national team, so I felt it at that time. (Ki) Sungyong hyung and a lot of fans came to visit me. Despite the cold weather, they filled the stadium and ran harder.”

Seoul has stayed in Final B for the past few years. Hwang Eui-jo, who got off to a fresh start with a win in the opening game, said, “I’m so happy that I won the opening game. All players need more development. Personally, there are a lot of good players on the team. It is important to harmonize well and play the game, and how to get through it.” 메이저사이트

He said, “Even if it’s not a goal in every game, my goal is to win and make a team called Seoul rise to a high position and compete with championship teams. It’s something I’ve focused on since I came here.”

I roamed the ground to my heart’s content. In other words, the sadness of not even entering the entry was shaken off. Hwang Eui-jo said, “I think players are happiest when they are on the pitch. It was also the path I chose, but I won with the support of the fans. He smiled, saying, “I hope that the good energy will continue to the end.”
